    You need to either @prop $server_options.support_numeric_verbname_strings to
    1 (didja read the changelog?) or edit the verb so it doesn't use 0-based
    index strings.

    Ugh, the three problems in the core, and you've got them all. This has to do
    with the new callers(). Fix $generic_editor:ok to expect invalid numbers in

    Install the $string_utils:connection_hostname_bsd described in the
    changelog, or if you don't have it copy the verb from another MOO that has
    it fixed.
